Jo and I are celebrating our tenth anniversary this month, and so I've booked us a table at the Rare Cow restaurant. It's a lovely place, and I've been there once before, but upon choosing what to have I've come a-cropper, as they say.
They do a Holy Cow Burger, which is as pictured below (that's two of the guys I went there with, shows scale between normal burger and Holy Cow):
24oz of pure meaty goodness, with salad and onion rings inside. I managed to get through approx 3/4 of mine before giving up. I put this solely down to having stuffed my face with a huge starter beforehand, and I know I could finish that muther in one go with ease on an empty stomach. However, I've seen they now do another epic food nom to try...
That's a 74oz sirloin. Seventy four ounces. TWO WHOLE KILOGRAMS OF BEEF. Plus odds and sods, of course.
Now, I look at that steak and wonder if I can really pass that up? But is it a bit excessive really (it's £99 just for that, the burger in comparison is just £29)? They are proper challenges too, so if you do the burger in 20 mins or the steak in 60 mins you get it free, but tbh I wouldn't rush it regardless. Either would be just for the sheer pleasure of great food in copious amounts.
So folks, do I revisit the burger and conquer the one large meal that has ever beaten me, or do I throw caution to the wind and go for the steak?
